Good Job Mexico. You killed our C Team with most of your A team. I am actually glad you beat us this bad, because I am almost willing to be my house that the US will beat Mexico next month.
The only reason I would not bet the house is that with the refs you never know when that silly red card will come out and what it is for.
So congrats on beating the US Team that you will never been seen again.
That game and 5 bucks will get you a cup of coffee at starbucks.
Whoopdee doo.
lol, I love America but rooot for where my family came from. Nothing wrong with that. mookie, all my ty spelling posts happen when I post from my phone.
heard there were some really class ass mexico fans in the stands today throwing at american fans.
stay classy.
I wonder if the mookie crew could beat usa in futbol.
This is funny... a loss like this is really pissing you guys off huh?
Mexico kicked our ass. Props to them. I don't really understand why so many Mexican-Americans are happy about it though. I thought they were Americans?
Mexico really should just keep its head down. You beat us in what quite truly is the redheaded stepchild's re ed friend of American sports. Thats great.
Lets see what you suck at:
Complete loss of control of Baja, Chihuahua, Sinaloa, Tamaulipas, Nuevo Leon, Guerroa and Michoacan. My favorite was when one of the cartels kidnapped the guy the feds had brought in as a kidnapping expert.
Largest rich poor gap in the western hemisphere. Last time i was in Monterrey there was a town out side of Walmart that was built out of castoff Walmart pallets.
Political corruption that rivals Zimbabwe. The interior department screwing over the indigenous tribes. We stopped doing that back in the early 19th century over 150 years ago. The drug czar taking $100k a month from the Juarez cartel.
So bravo you won a soccer game.
breaking news. they didn't assimilate
Why are you mad? Read the bold....
this isn't a Mexico is a better place to live than USA thread.
US does have a soccer team and the team has plentiful decent footballers on team, like Donovan and McBride. However, this team has never been considered great in the international world although Team US attended the past 4 consecutive world cups from 94 to 06, and even once made the 1/4 finals in Korea/Japan 02.
With the total popularity being shared by basketball, baseball and football in nation wide, the young guys generally have dreams of becoming big names in the 3 major leagues while very few of them has ever considered taking soccer as their career. The US soccer team need to recruit some decent newbies now that most of its pivotal players like Donovan and McBride are already on the red side of 30.
lol bitter
Donovan is 27... McBride is 37 and retired from international after WC06 (except for a token run in the olympics). I don't think very many of the main US players are over 30 right now. - Altidore, isn't even 20 yet. Cherundolo, Ching and Bocanegra are right at 30... Howard I think is right at 30. Only Hejduk, Mastroeni and Lewis are 31+ I think. It looks to me the US has already recruited the decent younger players... after all, the Gold Cup team (as everyone has said) was the B/C team with all of the major players left off the roster due to the deep Confederations run.
The whole Gold Cup was a smart move on US Soccers part, IMO... why not give all of these younger, internationally inexperienced kids semi-meaningful CAPs in a tourney that really doesn't mean anything going forward outside of pride (no confed cup birth, etc). A lot of these younger players I'd never heard much from looked great - having international games under their belts will just help in the future because it is time to get the players that never panned out out of the system (Beasley, Adu though it's still semi-early, etc).
Something someone can probably answer... I thought Mexico sent their "B" team too but a lot of people are making it some like they sent a majority of their starting 11. I assume Oswaldo is still the #1 keeper for them and maybe a few of the older players that have been around are reserves now - but is/was this Mexican squad pretty similar to the one that'll be in Azteca in a few weeks?
Apparently not.
Although they are lucky to live in a country where you can root against your own country and not get shot for it.
It's far more complicated than that... I don't "root against the US" they're just my third team when it comes to soccer... Mexico, Brazil, then USA... and I've never even been to Brazil... I root for the US whenever they play someone outside of those two other teams... In fact, I was extatic the day they beat Spain last month...
I follow Mexican 1st Division Soccer, I grew up on it... and my father used to play in that league back in his day... it's called heritage.
Some people forget that diversity is what makes this country great... one's allegiance should not be questioned based on such trivialities as what soccer team they root for...
In soccer, National Teams represent the sport's best world league. Rooting for Italy or Uruguay is no different than rooting for the Lakers or the Knicks even though you reside in San Antonio, or rooting for the Yankees, or the Steelers even though you reside in Dallas. It's just a team choice. Some people just like to play the "Nationality card" much like they play the race card especially when they don't understand the context.
This isn't siding with someone else's military, or their politics... it's only soccer people.
You got me wrong. I didn't say people shouldn't root for whomever they want. Go ahead. Personally, I root for my country and I don't like it when people from the US root against the US. That being said, I don't think just because I do something means i'm right and everyone else is wrong (another problem we have in this world) It's a personal choice, not a suggested choice of action.It's far more complicated than that...

As far as the heritage part goes....if you are born in the USA..isn't that also part of your heritage?
Adu never panned out? I thought he was a child soccer prodigy.
I root for Michael Phelps and most US Olympians for that matter, for US Baseball/Softball teams, the US Hockey team, for Rod and the Williams' sisters, USA Basketball (well technically I was rooting for Argentina due to Bowen's, and Pop's exclusion from the team and in a post-David Robinson era)... for the US in the Ryders Cups... that said, I simply don't root for US Soccer as my first team... IMO, people in that boat should not be crucified nor should they be made out to be anti-US... it's rather hurtful.
Just as a corollary where was this nationalistic outcry when people rooted for Federer over Rod ?
/hispanic forum
see tlong
the hispanic culture is different, just here in south central texas there are-
Mexicans, aka s- who cant speak english worth and slowly drive old loud pickups with every body accessory possible and like to dress up like gay cowboys
hispanics americans who think its cool to wear hecho en mexico shirts and sport the mexican flag because theyre "mexican" and try to act like vatos locos and wear "Loc" brand "locs". ususally some family members speak real spanish
There are tejanos who understand and respect what it means to be american and tejano but still like gritos and the intoxicating baselines that orginated in texas, usually some family speak spanish or texmex and they scoff Mexicans like no other
and then theres the rest that have been in texas since 1836, nobody speaks spanish and for all they figure, theyre white and could give a about culture or mexico
and then there are california mexicans who call themselves "Latino" for a reason nobody can explain. nobody knows about them besides the stereotypical we see in the movies
And I did neither. If you got hurt, then it was a misinterpretation of my comments.
I think more of an accurate tennis corollary would be if people rooted against the US Davis Cup team. Individual professionals are different in that they are not part of a national team or in that compe ion for the sole purpose of representing their country.
FWIW, I rooted for Rod because he was an American but I wasn't "against" Federer because he is a great champion and a class act.
i went yesterday during my lunch break to the shops at la cantera and all the mexicans from mexico were in the food court watching the game and i can give a less about soccer myself and they get all rowdy when there team scored
all the rich white people had to leave lol
but as a mexican who cant stand soccer i rather have the US win
Why do Mexicans drive slow? (no racist)
I have just picked up on this in the last couple months.
they dont believe in sanctionary cities although they live in them, afraid theyll get deported, theyre good drivers though generally, just slow as
